Acura NSXs are rare, and takes a long time to buy and sell. It took me over a year to find and buy my NSX.
If he's expecting to sell it within 2 months then he's being unrealistic.

I treat my car as a daily driver, Here in socal you can go to the movies and see another 10 z's in the parking lot. I know a guy at work who used to steal cars before he spent some time in jail and he said he wouldnt steal my car cause its not in high demand.
I agree with others if you feel this way about your car get a daily driver beater. That way your baby doesnt get hurt and stays at home. I felt the same way about my Stingray. I would never drive it anywhere and i kind of regret it cause i didnt put alot of miles on it and it sat in the garage. I ended up selling it cause i was to scared to drive it anywhere so what was the point of having it. I didnt get to enjoy it. Im going to enjoy the z cause thats why you bought it to have a nice affordable sports car.
My z is my beater
I get to drive it everywhere with out worries.

Not to crap on some people....
But, many times, those who tend to worry TOO MUCH are the people who barely afforded their Z. Let me set the record straight. I am not rich and I don't own a Z. I am a college student, but from what I understand, people need to learn to live within their means.
For someone making $250,000+ a year, a Z to them is most probably a junker and they wouldn't care if it got totalled because they could buy another one tomorrow in cash.
But I also understand for most of the younger people like me who are in college or just graduated, it IS a BIG DEAL. I would suggest you NOT BUY anything that would cause you so much agony.

Here in the east bay it doesn't matter where you park your car at night. I leave my Z in a hanger at the public airport because being next to Oakland (with 27 deaths from the 1st of the year) you can't leave anything out side. Just last week in the pouring rain 2 cars were borken into at my condo. It's really bad when you go out to your car at 5 in the morning, it's raining and you see a car with the trunk up and the drivers window broken out then 4 cars down another trunk up and you guessed it another broken window. Hell they even tried to steal my 88 CRX last year. The talented fools must have used a can opener on my right door then broke the tip of a screwdriver in the switch, good thing the cheap *** screwer broke or my beater car would have been gone. With all that said I have not parked my Z at home once in the last year! Can't wait to get out of here, the eastbay I mean.
